第四千一百五十四章 石化雕像

Plop! The sound of water reached his ears as Lin Xuan was submerged by the well. Not only did he not feel any discomfort, but he felt a sense of comfort throughout his body.

This wasn't just ordinary well water; it was clearly... Nine Heavens Immortal Dew!

Lin Xuan's heart leaped with joy.

Nine Heavens Immortal Dew was also a legendary holy object. Just one drop could restore the magical power of a cultivator who had passed through the Tribulation Stage.

Since this precious item appeared here, the Nine Heavens Sustaining Soil must be nearby as well.

Lin Xuan took a deep breath and swallowed the Nine Heavens Immortal Dew in one gulp.

Restore my magical power!

Apart from that, there were other benefits to this item.

He couldn't afford to miss such an opportunity. At the same time, Lin Xuan sped up towards the bottom of the well.

After swimming for about twenty丈, he suddenly found himself in a spacious area. It was like a new small world before his eyes.

Though it was a miniature world, it was incredibly solid and rich with essence energy. The air was filled with bird songs and fragrant flowers, exuding an extraordinary aura.

Then... the Nine Heavens Sustaining Soil came into view.

Yes, that's right, the Nine Heavens Sustaining Soil.

It was on a mountain peak in front of him.

This mountain towered ten thousand feet high, with rugged rocks and towering beauty. It looked like a sharp sword piercing the heavens.

It exuded an overwhelming aura.

However, at the top of this mountain, the Nine Heavens Sustaining Soil was unremarkable. Its size was roughly that of a fist, dark in color, just like ordinary soil.

But its unremarkable appearance didn't matter to Lin Xuan; he immediately recognized it as the precious treasure he had long desired.

He swallowed his saliva. It was hard not to be moved by this sight.

However, Lin Xuan stood still and did not rush to take it right away.

Because at the base of that mountain peak, there were several statues among the rugged rocks. They looked lifelike.

Clearly, they were powerful beings from another world who had been petrified.

Someone had already arrived here first and found this place, but their end was tragic.

This wasn't ordinary petrification; once removed, one could be revived. But these people's souls had undoubtedly scattered to the winds.

He couldn't afford to be careless based on past experiences.

However, after surveying his surroundings, he didn't see any formidable enemies.

Releasing his divine sense, he found nothing.

Lin Xuan was speechless but certainly wouldn't hesitate.

After all, this journey was for the Nine Heavens Sustaining Soil. The treasure was right in front of him, and it would be foolish to give up even if he knew there were dangers.

He would deal with whatever came his way.

With a determined mind, Lin Xuan stepped forward.

...

However, just as he took a few steps, the statues suddenly turned their heads.

Lin Xuan was taken aback. He had clearly felt that these petrified cultivators' souls had scattered to the winds. How could this be?

Was his sense of perception wrong?

No, it couldn't be!

Before he could fully process this thought, an unbelievable scene unfolded. A flash of light appeared, and the stone skin peeled away, revealing the statues as living beings.

Three men and two women each exuded powerful auras.

This wasn't strange; those who reached here wouldn't have any weaklings. Among the Three Thousand Worlds, they were true top-tier figures.

They each revealed their treasures.

There were immortal swords, long spears, large axes, sharp hammers, and some other rare artifacts...

They charged at Lin Xuan with great ferocity.

However, this was just a facade. Their eyes were all dazed.

These fellows had no consciousness; they were merely puppets controlled by others.

They came here to find the Nine Heavens Sustaining Soil as well.

But once they fell, they became puppets for someone else.

What a terrifying spell!

If he failed, he would become one of them.

With this thought in mind, Lin Xuan's face turned pale.

He no longer cared about concealing his strength. With a burst of green light, he lunged forward.

The first obstacle was a壮汉 (strong man).

Seeing Lin Xuan approaching, he raised his hand and the long sword hovering before him sliced towards Lin Xuan.

A flash of cold light split the air in two.

However, there was no display of essence energy. This fellow had mastered the use of magical power to such an extent that it was almost perfect.

Unfortunately, his strike missed its target. Lin Xuan's movements were swift and clean; instead of blocking, he used spatial法则 (rules) to instantly move away.

The entire process was quick as a flash. The next moment, Lin Xuan appeared in front of the壮汉.

With a wave of his sleeve, the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword Fish emerged. A burst of silver light showered down on the opponent's head and face.

If it were an ordinary cultivator at the Tribulation Stage, such suddenness would have caused them to panic. But these fellows were just puppets, so they wouldn't be surprised.

However, their reactions weren't slow either.

They spread their hands, and essence energy flashed wildly as a large shield appeared before them.

Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal rang in his ears like raindrops on banana leaves. The shield's light flickered but still managed to block the terrifying attack.

But this wasn't the main point.

As Lin Xuan summoned the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword, he vanished from his original spot. In the next moment, spatial fluctuations appeared as Lin Xuan reappeared behind the壮汉.

Feinting and attacking!

Lin Xuan used spatial displacement!

Then, with a wave of his sleeve, the entire action flowed like clouds and water. A silver thread appeared in mid-air.

It flashed by instantly!

Targeting the opponent's head.

Though it seemed calm, the power contained within was shocking.

The strong man reacted quickly but still couldn't match the speed at which he summoned his treasure. His head was sliced off.

Blood splattered, but Lin Xuan didn't have time to savor his victory as another four puppets charged towards him with a roar.

Wanting to rely on numbers?

Lin Xuan had allies too. He didn't have time to show off now.

With a wave of his sleeve, the Must臾洞天图 (Momentary Caverns Diagram) appeared and slowly unfolded. Several beautiful girls came into view.

Moon, Yuanyuan, Xiaodie, and Nine Heavens Immortal Maiden. Not only were they exceptionally beautiful, but their strength was formidable as well.

"These guys are yours!"

"Lord Husband, be at ease."

"Brother Lin, just watch."

The voices of the ladies entered his ears. Then, each of them emitted a dazzling light and charged forward.

...

In the next moment, thunderous sounds echoed in his ears. The girls found their targets and unleashed their divine powers. It was needless to say that although the four puppets were strong, they couldn't match these beauties' power. They quickly fell one by one.

No danger.

The crisis Lin Xuan faced had been resolved. He raised his head and looked at the Nine Heavens Sustaining Soil on the mountain peak again.

What dangers lay there?

Lin Xuan felt frequent signs of divine omens in his heart but couldn't see any guardians. This was too unbelievable.

Logically, he shouldn't have acted rashly, but he didn't have time to waste here. Lin Xuan stepped towards the mountain peak. (To be continued)
